Extract from article:

ABSTRACT
Background Specialty and associate specialist (SAS) doctors comprise a significant proportion of the UK medical workforce.

Appraisal has the potential to support professional development, as well as being vital for revalidating a doctor's licence to practise.

Early research indicated that SAS doctors experienced difficulties engaging with appraisal. It is not clear if the situation has improved over recent years, and SAS doctors' voices are largely absent from the literature.

Research question What are SAS doctors' understanding and experiences of appraisal and how do they make sense of them?
